Garmin StreetPilot 2820 has cracked screen digitizer

I've got a garmin streetpilot 2820 that I got after a friend broke the screen during a sharp turn. She thought it was broken completely, but as far as I can tell only the screen digitizer is broken. I've searched google and ebay but cannot find the part, does anyone know where I can find it?

It's got a small (3/16") 4 pin ribbion coming off the middle of the right side.

The reset button on my Garmin c340 is behind the plastic trim around the front. You will see a small indent for a fingernail or something like that along the inside at the top lift up at that point and it should come off no problem

What are you trying to update, firmware or maps? Firmware updates ae free from Garmin. Just go to www.garmin.com and download the WebUpdater. If you are trying to update the maps, these are available for purchase in CD or SD card formats, also from Garmin or your local retailer. They should be approx. $70.

I had a problem when I went to the Garmin site to update my 2820. After the update, the touch screen function didn't work--it would freeze and I'd have to reboot it. In contacting Garmin, even though this was a high-end GPS and was not inexpensive when it came out, they said they would no longer support it and they wouldn't offer any suggestions as to how or who to go to in order to return its functionality. It looks like what happened when they stopped their customer support that they combined the software from the 2820 with their Nuvi software and while that might work for the map, it deactivated the touch-screen and bluetooth function. My unit still does not work.

Hello there:please follow these instruction and this should help if not let me know and i willcontinue to get you more information for you nstructions

Step 1
Calibrate
the screen of the Garmin StreetPilot C340. If the touch screen does not
seem to respond when you hit it with your finger or a stylus, you may
need to calibrate it. To do this, turn the unit off and then hold down
the "Power" key for approximately one minute. You will see a
calibration screen come up that will recalibrate the GPS unit.

Step 2
Reset
the Garmin StreetPilot C340. If your GPS unit is not responding or is
stuck on a particular screen, it may need to be reset in order to
operate. To reset, remove the face plate of the unit by gently prying
it off. Locate the "Reset" button under the face plate and press down
in order to restart the device.

Step 3
Change
the fuse of the Garmin StreetPilot C340. If the fuse blows on the GPS,
you will need to make a replacement using an ACG/3AG 2 amp fuse.
Unscrew the adapter cord at the end and remove the fuse found there.
Put in the new fuse to see if this returns function to the unit.

Step 4
Update
the software for your Garmin StreetPilot C340. If the GPS is not
providing you with correct directional information, you may need to
update the software or download new maps onto the device. Connect the
Garmin StreetPilot C340 with the USB cord to your PC and log on the Garmin website for available updates.

If you are technically incline, purchase a damaged unit off ebay and swap out the parts. Take note that taking the Garmin apart is not difficult, just keep note of how the antenna comes out. That is the only hook I know that will hang up most people.
